Today, we are introducing a new tool that will prompt these users to update, bringing them closer to the app experience you intended to deliver.

Play recovery tools allow you to prompt users running specific versions of your app to update every time they restart the app.

      Eh it’s kind of nessecairy. An In-app solution would be fine if notifs weren’t needed.

      The issue is that only google has a notification server.

      User can dismiss the prompt. But prompt will be shown on every cold launch until app is updated.
